This "Panel" from the Kuba people, currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, is a striking example of intricate textile art. The piece is made from raffia, a natural fiber, and showcases a complex geometric pattern of interlocking squares, demonstrating the Kuba's skilled craftsmanship. Though the exact date of this work is unknown, it exemplifies the Kuba's rich tradition of textile production and decorative artistry, often used for ceremonial purposes.
